.06 Policy

It is the policy of BLM that all IT investments are monitored, tracked, documented, maintained, validated, controlled, and released under the BLM ITIM and CPIC processes. The corresponding BLM Handbook, H-1265-1, Capital Planning and Investment Control, documents the processes and activities necessary to ensure BLM’s IT investments address supportability within prescribed technical operating environments, mitigate risk and present a cohesive, cost effective approach to meeting OMB, GAO, and DOI objectives.

The scope of the policy contained in this document applies to all BLM resources at all levels. This policy is mandatory for all organizational units, employees, contractors, and others having access to and/or using the IRM resources of the BLM. This Manual will be applied to all existing and future IT investments. It will also be applied to all internal Service Level Agreements (SLAs) between organizational units and external interagency agreements and contracts made between BLM and other public and private organizations.
